THE good Deacon Haytord, of the
Laramie Sentinel, with hat truly Chris
tan spirit Of bene7olence which charac-
terizes him, never loses an opportunity to
scatter the seeds of bitterness and discord
between Cheyenne and Laramie. Under
the guise of the most sugared compliment
is always concealed the lurking grain of
ipecac which neutralizes all its sweetness
and changes the flavor to gall. In the
economy of nature the truly good Deacon
Hayford may have his uses as a counter
i%rritant, but medical science teaches us
that counter i%rritants are not indicated for
steady application In every case. The
good deacon, we understand went through
a curse of medical study at a remote
period of his career. We would therefore
recommend him to a thoughtful re-perusal
of his old text books on the subject indi-

weather here has been fair but threaten
ing on the upper coast, with a brisk to
balmy winds combined with tropical snow
storms and changing to nuggy deposits
of sleet as far north as Beacon street,
followed by cold thunder storms, lowering
weather, succeeded by rising barometer,
sunstrokes and sleighing. TIE wind has
been variable to fresh, with threatening
atmospheric disturbances, shifting from
fair to middling and to brisk winds, then
back to softly brisk winds, sky warm to
bright, with eager winds, variable to part
ly changeable again. Mildly tempestuous

The Costa RIenn,s rInno.

The "marimba' is constructed of
twenty-one pieces of split bamboo of
graded lengths strung upon two bars of
the same wood, according to harmonic
sequence, thus furnishing three octaves.
Underneath each strip of bamboo is a
gourd, strung upon n wire, which takes
the place of a sounding board, and adds
strength and sweetness to the tones. The
performer takes the instrument upon his
knees and strikes the bamboo strips with
little hammers of padded leather, usu-
ally taking two between the fingers of
each hand, so as to strike a chord of -four
notes, which he does with great dexter
ity. l have seen men play with three
hammers in each hand and use them rs
rapidly and skillfully as a pianist touches
keys.
The tones of the "marimba" resemble
those of the x~ylophone, which has re-
they are louder and more resonant. The
instrument is peculiarly adapted to the
native airs, which are p~laintive, but
melodious. At all of the tambos where
the cartmen stop, "'marimbas" are kept,
and i'll every a are those who can
handle them skillfully. Tourists gener-
ally travel in the cool hours of the morn
ing and evening to avoid the blistering
sun, and it is a welcome diversion to
stop at the bodegas to listen to the songs
of the cartmen. and watch them dancing
with dark eyed, barefooted senoritas.-

A SENATORIAL WRECK.

About the saddest case of monumental
ruin in the country Just now is United
States Senator Jones, of Florida, who for
the past two years has made his head
quarters at Detroit. Jones was long a
conspicuous figure in affairs 10 Florida,
and when he subsequently entered the
United States senate was an honest and
valuable representative for his constitu-
ents.
About three years ago he first went to
Detroit on a visit. His political promi-
nence, combined with his ability and fine
social qualities, soon made him a lion in
the pretty Michigan city. Jones lived in
great state at one of the leading hotels
and soon became known as a choice spirit
in all convIvial gatherings. About this
time he became infatuated with Miss
Clothilde Palms, a lady of high social
position and great wealth. Miss Palms
was by no means a beauty, neither was
she what might be denominated a spring
chicken. From all accounts she gave no
encouragement to the senator, whose
strange infatuation not only became the
town talk OF Detroit but a subject for COS
sip all over the country.
Lately things appear to have gone from
bad to worse. Under the hallucination
that a plot is on foot to put him out
of the way he has remained inactive
in Detroit, unwilling to stir abroad, I'M
~pervious to the advice of friends, and his
business has gone to uin He has drifted
from one hotel to another unable TO pay
his bills. For three weeks past he has
been the guest Of Detective Pat O'Neil,
who knew him in his better days. The
announcement in a Detroit paper hat a
subscription paper was being circulated
for his benefit has drawn the first public
utterance from Senator Jones. He says
he is not An object of charity, but he goes
no further.
Except for his hallucination in the di-
rection of plots against his well being,
Senator Jones seems in every way per
fectly sane and reasonable. 1t is possible
that a commission of inquiry may be APP
pointed by the courts.

a eulogy on Beecher, appears to have

Endurnnce in Long distance Running.

The essential requisites of a long dis
lance runner are n strong heart and capa-
cious lungs in n broad, deep and mobile
chest. The reason for this will be appar-
ent to those who understand the physi-
ology Of exercise. To sustain long con-
tinued exertion latent energy in the mus
Giles used is necessary and also a ready
means of supplying these muscles with
an increased amount of oxygen while in
action, and Of carrying away the carbonic
acid that results from the combustion in
the tissues. Hence the necessity of breath
ing faster while running than while walk
ing, and unless tits exchange of gases
can be carried on with sufficient rapidity
and in sufficient quantities to meet the
demands of the organism under these
trying circumstances there soon comes an
end to further muscular activity, though
the muscles themselves may be far from
exhaustion.-D. A. Sargent, M. D., in
Scribner's Magazine.
